Find perfect balance with BoConcept’s design principles for wellness

As wellness continues to drive modern hospitality design, BoConcept outlines its blueprint for harmony, beauty, and balance…

BoConcept Trade & Contract understands the power of design in shaping experience. Drawing on over seventy years of Danish design heritage (at its very best), the brand helps hospitality professionals craft interiors that promote tranquillity through thoughtful materials, natural elements, and timeless forms; for interiors that support calm, comfort, and clarity of mind.

“At BoConcept, we see furniture as more than a functional requirement,” says Signe Kok Nielsen, Interior Designer at BoConcept. “We design pieces that enhance how a space feels – how it supports relaxation, clarity, and joy. That is where true balance lies.”

Harmony through symmetry 

Danish design is globally renowned for its ability to combine aesthetics with function. Symmetry plays a crucial role in achieving visual harmony – something particularly important in hospitality settings, where guests instinctively respond to calm, ordered environments. 

“Balance large pieces, such as our Bergamo sofa or Bolzano lounge chairs, across a space to create rhythm and symmetry,” says Nielsen. “Our minds are naturally drawn to symmetry – it creates an immediate sense of order and ease.” 

This considered approach to layout is echoed by designer Morten Georgsen, creator of BoConcept’s bestselling Santiago dining series and Bolzano collection. “For me, design is about beautiful proportions,” Georgsen explains. “The shortest distance between function and aesthetic – that’s what I strive to achieve.”

A palette for peace 

Wellness-focused interiors often begin with a calming colour palette. Neutral tones like stone, sand, pale blues or soft greys form the foundation of many BoConcept projects, offering a visual quietude that suits both guest rooms and communal areas. 

“Layering is key,” Nielsen adds. “Start with soft base tones, then add complementary hues through accessories or upholstery to add depth while maintaining serenity.” 

Texture also plays a vital role in adding warmth and tactility. From rich boucle fabrics to smooth ceramics and natural woods, BoConcept’s material palette is carefully curated to enhance guest comfort. Linen cushions, wool throws, and textured rugs further contribute to a feeling of retreat.

Bringing the outdoors in 

Biophilic design continues to influence the hospitality sector, with more hotels seeking to foster connections to the natural world. BoConcept’s collections reflect this demand – incorporating natural materials, earthy colours, and organic forms. 

“Guests feel most relaxed when surrounded by elements of nature,” notes Uwais Mohammed, BoConcept Interior Designer. “Our clients are drawn to wooden finishes, stone sculptures, and botanical art pieces – like the Helena Christensen Flora series – that evoke a subtle yet impactful connection to the natural world.” 

By blending natural and crafted elements, BoConcept helps designers strike the perfect balance between indoors and out.

Wellness through light 

Lighting plays a fundamental role in setting the tone of a hospitality space. BoConcept’s design guidance encourages layered lighting strategies – combining ambient, task, and accent light sources to create atmosphere and adaptability. 

“Natural light is always the priority, but where that’s not possible, soft, warm lighting can be used to support relaxation,” Nielsen advises. “The goal is to create environments that shift gently from day to night, energising guests in the morning and calming them in the evening.” 

Tailored design for hospitality wellness 

BoConcept Trade & Contract works closely with designers to translate wellness-driven concepts into fully realised interiors. From boutique hotels to multi-site operators, the brand offers tailored support – from early-stage planning and 3D visualisation to bespoke furniture specification and installation. 

With wellness shaping the future of hospitality, BoConcept’s balanced design approach positions it as a trusted partner for forward-thinking projects.
